Hi all. (Yes I know this thread has been asked a million times, in a million forums 
, but I thought that the world needed 1 more 
).
Anyways, I just reformated my Hdd after around 2 years and its just so smooth and fast. Nice bootup speed, I no longer dredd a restart.
Basically, it reminded me how a good PC should run.
So I was hoping to get a few good tipps on how to maintain that speed. (My boot up speed was down to like 2 min after i logged in, that I could actually use stuff, now its like 2 sec.)
I am not a complete newbe, so I do know the basics of defragging and basically having a good antivir (I use avast) at all times and updating all the major stuff like java, using CCcleaner, using a proper uninstaller ( I use Advanced unistaller Pro), not having a ton of useless programms in the start up ( I only have avast, and steam, and the autoupdater for things like adobe, java, windows etc. you know the major stuff), always turning off windows, and not unplugging or some crap like that, having a relatively empty main drive ( make sure its never more then 50% full, I use my secondary HDD for storage).
Non the less, my PC's always slow down slowly but steadily. Is that just the way it always is? Is there nothing I can do?
What do you guys do to make sure your PC stays as smooth as a new one? Special oils? ointments? Magic wands?
(serisously though) can you guys give some nice tipps?
P.S. I have fast boot on in Bios and I make prioritise defrags, to increase my boot up and response speed as well.
Cheers all.
